Excellent 5* service
5/5

It is very difficult to travel during lockdown but Gems crew were able to postpone my trip due to travel restrictions across South Africa without an extra charge. Also I was kept informed at all times.

Janine has been so professional and accommodating. She ensured she responded to all my requests and questions. I also wanted to change my dates and she did so without concerns. I felt very important as Janine checked up on us before and after the trip. Great Service!

A trip which exceeded our expectations!
5/5

From the very early stages of our communication, Janine from Gems was a professional travel agent which understood what I wanted and designed a few packages for us to chose from. Frequent contact and continuous feedback in order to deliver the best possible itinerary was the reason we trusted them for our safari experience.

Not only did she provide an excellent and comfortable trip, but she also stayed in touch with us in order to make sure that everything goes as planned.

We highly recommend this agency no matter what your trip purpose is. We will definitely use them for our next adventure!

Excellent confirmation of booking and transparency of inclusion's.
5/5

Gems Of Africa responded with the information required with full clarity. Janine was assigned to us to get the information and booking was confirmed without much delay.
As promised our transfer to Gondwana was arranged and available.
Tom our tour guide and driver for the transfer was professional and kept us engaged during the transfers.
The Gondwana staff also mirrored the information that Gems of Africa had shared and our stay was without any problems.
The reserve also arranged our game drives and we are thankful to Janine and the Gems of Africa team for making our holiday memorable.

Great experience
5/5

We had a wonderful experience on our 3 day safari! The lodge was beautiful with amazing views and the staff was very friendly. The food was great. We had 4 rides (2 mornings and 2 Afternoons) that were 3 hours long! We saw so many magnificent animals up close and it was very exciting. Our guide was so knowledgeable about them and their habitats. Opportunity to learn about conservation efforts.

Great experience for our first safari in Inverdoorn
5/5

We had a great time on the Safari. Saw loads of animals up close and enjoyed the whole experience.
It is relatively close to Cape Town - around 2.5 - 3 hours drive, but feels like another planet.
The Inverdoorn resort was lovely, great food and service.
The stars experience was amazing, saw many more stars than back home.
The lions are kept in a separate reserve at the moment, so that is not so great, but as a first time safari it was really good. If you have already been on larger safaris maybe this is not the one for you. But, if you are looking for something close to Cape Town, that gives you the safari experience then this is a great choice.
